Weekend footy betting (15th/16th)

edited September 2012 in Betting Chat
Thought I'd quickly pop up my picks for today before rushing out.

Two bets for me today

Main Acca:

Chelsea to beat QPR (A ) 5/6
Sheff Utd to beat Bury (H) @ 1/2
Bradford to beat Barnet (H) @ 1/2
Gillingham to beat Bristol Rovers (H) @ 8/11

The 4 way pays a shade over 6/1

Long Shot Acca:

Sunderland/Liverpool - DRAW @ 12/5 (although the 12/5 on offer for a Sunderland win is also tempting)
Hull to beat Millwall (H) @ 11/10
Bristol City to beat Blackburn (H) @ 7/4
Carlisle to beat Swindon (H) @ 15/8
Preston to beat Crawley (H) @ 11/10
Portsmouth to beat Walsall (H) @ 11/10

The 6 way potentially returns a whopping 248/1 so only small stakes for a bit of extra fun

Good luck if you're having a go peeps

    Just a small Treble today.
    1. Gillingham v Bristol Rovers Gillingham @ 8/11
    2. Tranmere v Coventry Tranmere @ 11/10
    3. Bolton v Watford Bolton @ 10/11

     Put £ 18.36 at just under 5-1.  Hope it comes in as this clears my Sky poker account otherwise.
    Wii deposit more if lose but play very little on Sky Poker now. Shame really but i like the "Fancy a Bet" thread.

    Nice win - Shame you didn,t put Defoe in instead of Owen _ Not sure how it works with Non runners on Lucky 15,s but should be a nice payout - WD

    After this distarstrous bet on Saturday i,ve been left with £50 off free bets so i,ve placed some of it on the following in tonights match
    17/09/2012 01:08:12 111/
    208
    W:5.00 Single Everton v Newcastle/First Goalscorer Jelavic, Nikica  5/1 Open O £5.00 £0.00
    17/09/2012 01:05:43 110/
    207
    W:10.00 Single Everton v Newcastle/Match Betting Draw  12/5 Open O £10.00 £0.00
    EDIT : After checking my account this should leave me with £35 of free bets left, but as i phoned up yesterday to enquire where my free bet money was they added it manually str8 away onto the system
    It looks like today they,ve added it on again as it is now showing £85 of free bets left rather than the correct amount of £35

    I,m not entirely sure what to do about this. Do i do the honourable thing and email the site and tell them they,ve added £50 to much on or just leave it and hope they don,t notice?

    What would you do?

    I'd email them mate. They might let you keep it. A similar thing has happened to me on here before & they let me keep it (probably cos they knew I wouldn't win!)

    Honesty is the best policy - Got this email back and they,re letting me keep half of it - £25 - Also had a result on the draw

    Dear Paul,

    Thank you for your email.

    Thank you for you honesty! As you informed us of this I have removed £25 from the free bet balance there is £60 remaining and you are more than welcome to spend this.

    Well done for doing the right thing IMO.  No point worrying over something like this , lets say you hadn't owned up and turned the free bets into hundreads of pounds.  A)  You would/might feel bad.    B)   You would constantly worry they found out and took all the money off you.

    I must say.  Very rare bookies make a mistake !
